I recently had the opportunity to interview with Coastal Ridge at their corporate office in Columbus, Ohio. For management positions, the process includes one-on-one meetings with members of the leadership team, which takes a few hours but is absolutely worth the time. These conversations allow the team to truly get to know you, while also giving you the chance to learn more about them and the company culture. The hospitality I experienced was among the best I’ve encountered during an interview process. Even though I was not offered a position, the interaction left a very positive impression. It is clear that Coastal Ridge invests significant time and effort into building a strong management team, and that level of commitment reflects a workplace culture where employees can feel like family.

It was fine. There were three interviews in the whole process and then no follow up until a week past the time they said they would reach out. Then it was blanket HR reply.
